As Lord of the Rings: War in the North (http://www.joystiq.com/tag/Lord-of-the-Rings-War-in-the-North/) preps for an autumn assault, Warner Bros. is deploying an extravagant Collector's Edition and pre-order incentive to help gather recruits.


The Collector's Edition, which costs a whopping $130, includes a Ranger of the North Quiver Case (http://www.joystiq.com/screenshots/the-lord-of-the-rings-war-in-the-north-collectors-edition/4272279/#/0), art book, a behind-the-scenes DVD on the game's music, three songs from the soundtrack ... and the game. Those who pick up the CE for Xbox 360 receive a Ranger of the North Avatar outfit for Xbox Live, while PS3 purchasers get a War in the North Theme Pack.

You'll also have to contend with pesky retail-specific pre-order bonuses for the standard edition, which we've listed after the break.
